will issue appropriate assessment

Notification of Interested Parties
This notice serves as a final reminder
to importers of their responsibility
under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a
certificate regarding the reimbursement
of antidumping duties prior to
liquidation of the relevant entries
during this review period. Failure to
comply with this requirement could
result in the Secretary’s presumption
that reimbursement of the antidumping
duties occurred and the subsequent
assessment of double antidumping
duties.
This notice also serves as a reminder
to parties subject to administrative
protective orders (‘‘APOs‘‘) of their
responsibility concerning the return or
destruction of proprietary information
disclosed under APO in accordance
with 19 CFR 351.305, which continues
to govern business proprietary
information in this segment of the
proceeding. Timely written notification
of the return/destruction of APO

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
The Department’s procedures for the
conduct of Sunset Reviews are set forth
in its Procedures for Conducting Five-
year (‘‘Sunset’’) Reviews of
Antidumping and Countervailing Duty
Orders, 63 FR 13516 (March 20, 1998)
and 70 FR 62061 (October 28, 2005).
Guidance on methodological or
analytical issues relevant to the
Department’s conduct of Sunset
Reviews is set forth in the Department’s
Policy Bulletin 98.3 - Policies Regarding
the Conduct of Five-year (‘‘Sunset’’)
Reviews of Antidumping and
Countervailing Duty Orders; Policy
Bulletin, 63 FR 18871 (April 16, 1998).

In accordance with 19 CFR
351.218(c), we are initiating the Sunset
Review of the following antidumping
duty order:
Product Department Contact
Juanita Chen (202)
482–1904
Reviews must respond not later than 15
days after the date of publication in the
Federal Register of this notice of
initiation by filing a notice of intent to
participate. The required contents of the
notice of intent to participate are set
forth at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(ii). In
accordance with the Department’s
regulations, if we do not receive a notice
of intent to participate from at least one
domestic interested party by the 15-day
deadline, the Department will
automatically revoke the orders without
further review.
See 19 CFR 351.218(d)(1)(iii).
For sunset reviews of countervailing
duty orders, parties wishing the
Department to consider arguments that
countervailable subsidy programs have
been terminated must include with their
substantive responses information and
documentation addressing whether the
changes to the program were (1) limited
to an individual firm or firms and (2)
03MRN1
 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 42 / Monday, March 3, 2008 / Notices
effected by an official act of the
government. Further, a party claiming
program termination is expected to
document that there are no residual
benefits under the program and that
substitute programs have not been
introduced. Cf. 19 CFR 351.526(b) and
(d). If a party maintains that any of the
subsidies countervailed by the
Department were not conferred
pursuant to a subsidy program, that
party should nevertheless address the
applicability of the factors set forth in
19 CFR 351.526(b) and (d). Similarly,
parties wishing the Department to
consider whether a company’s change
in ownership has extinguished the
benefit from prior non–recurring,
allocable, subsidies must include with
their substantive responses information
and documentation supporting their
claim that all or almost all of the
company’s shares or assets were sold in
an arm’s length transaction, at a price
representing fair market value, as
described in the Notice of Final
Modification of Agency Practice Under
Section 123 of the Uruguay Round
Agreements Act, 68 FR 37125 (June 23,
2003) (‘‘Modification Notice’’). See
Modification Notice for a discussion of
the types of information and
documentation the Department requires.
If we receive an order–specific notice
of intent to participate from a domestic
interested party, the Department’s
regulations provide that all parties
wishing to participate in the Sunset
Review must file complete substantive
responses not later than 30 days after
the date of publication in the Federal
Register of this notice of initiation. The
required contents of a substantive
response, on an order–specific basis, are
set forth at 19 CFR 351.218(d)(3). Note
that certain information requirements
differ for respondent and domestic
parties. Also, note that the Department’s
information requirements are distinct
from the Commission’s information
requirements. Please consult the
Department’s regulations for
information regarding the Department’s
conduct of Sunset Reviews.1 Please
consult the Department’s regulations at
19 CFR Part 351 for definitions of terms
and for other general information
concerning antidumping and

Department will consider individual requests for
extension of that five-day deadline based upon a
showing of good cause.
